I use Auto only when it's too hot out. The compressor robs a

lot of engine omph. My wife complains all the time, cause I keep switching the AC off and rolling down the windows.

I almost never have the AC on. It saps power from the engine and I don't like that

Only use AC when absolutely needed. Gives me a headache, steals HP.

I leave it all off and have my windows wide open.

In the NW I used it a lot. Helps keep the humidity and fogging/moisture level down in the car.

Is that true? The compressor shuts off when you stomp on the gas?
